Our Gallery of Offenders is for educational purposes, and to give our web site visitors the chance to contact media-makers directly to tell them what they think. The items are mostly chosen from the U.S. mainstream media available in the last year, using an independent process. We are never making fun of models/actors themselves, but the environment they exist within. Please submit your picks on our Contact page.

Suit Supply supplies more misogyny

Questions to Consider:

How does this make you feel as a consumer?

What do you think this is telling men about what could happen when they purchase their product?

What We Think:

Advertisers are constantly trying to find new ways to attract consumers’ eyes and interest in their products. Sadly, the way this tends to happen is by having a woman’s body be scantily-clad. Suit Supply is a Dutch clothing line (with stores in the U.S.) that makes suits for men, and their latest advertising campaign is following… suit. Each advertisement shows a suit-clad male and a woman who is either submitting to his advances or whose face isn’t needed, just certain body parts. The web site also has an uncensored version of the ads where all the women are naked and the men are all clothed. Suit Supply isn’t saying anything different or new–instead, they are insulting both women and to men with this campaign. They’re a repeat offender: They did a campaign in 2010 that was considered so offensive that Facebook blocked any images. Maybe they should rethink their image choices… — Brenda Molina

This is garbage, I am signed with a modeling agency myself, we're asked before signing on for ANYTHING. Why would a woman agree to subject herself to such derogatory imagery? It starts with us ladies, if one woman agrees to pose like this, why are we sitting behind our computer screens taking our outrage out on the keyboard?! Why can't we just say no.
